These are FDA-approved contraceptives! None are abortive. The 5 justices don't understand basic science or medicine.
I was really pissed when Alito said that the reason why it's a substantial burden on their expression of religion is that they believe it's morally wrong to kill an embryo and that's what those drugs/iuds do.

This isn't "religious freedom". Controlling your reproduction is a personal health issue. Giving employers veto power over their employees healthcare is stunning!
